Anyone know if STO is available from Time Warner Cable in Dayton Ohio area? My wife and I are looking to move to the Dayton area later this spring and TWC wont/cant tell me if STO is available in that area. If it is not available, is it available on dish network or on direct TV?

Unfortunately Dayton is outside of the Cleveland Indians home TV territory according to Major League Baseball (STO's Territory mirrors the Indians TV Territory). Your only access to LIVE Cleveland Indians baseball games would be via the MLB Extra Innings package, which is available to Time Warner Cable subscribers. DirecTV also offers this package. Dish Network does not offer this package.

DirecTV and Dish Network have Regional Sports Packs that includes STO. These packages allow you to watch our Indians pre and post-game shows, The Tribe Report, All Bets Are Off with Bruce Drennan as well as all of our other sports shows and events featuring the Cleveland Browns, Ohio State Buckeyes, the Ohio High School Football and Basketball State Championship Games, Ohio Athletic Conference, Mount Union Football, Cleveland State, Youngstown State, Ohio Golf, Ohio Outdoors, Notre Dame, West Virginia, Cleveland Auto Show, Mixed Martial Arts, Boxing, Wrestling, Poker, Racing and more.

All Cleveland Indians baseball games (LIVE, replay or classics) would not be available through this Regional Sports Pack.

Unfortunately, it appears that Comcast does not have the analog channel space for STO. We've met with Comcast personnel that manages the Ohio Comcast systems. They've been offered the same terms and conditions that all of our other cable and satellite providers have agreed to.

I don’t think that it helps that their management team is located in Pittsburgh, and thus, far removed from the local community. I do know that they're aware of the Indians fans desire for STO after receiving angry phone calls and emails to their customer service department.

I know that this is not a solution, but DirecTV and Dish Network currently offer STO in those areas. We will continue to pursue, and hopefully with the help of the Indians fans in those areas, we can convince Comcast that STO is a cable channel that should be available to their customers.
